The exhibition Interaktivalij of Slovenian artist Jaka Železnikar was held in Rijeka in Museum of Modern and Contemporary Art, from 10 to 16 December 2019.

It is an installation that was created as a part of a collaborative exchange programme of artists and collaborators between the Slovenian Kibla and the Museum of Modern and Contemporary Art, within the EU project Risk Change.

Jaka Železnikar, a Slovenian author of e-literature and one of the authors of early net art is presenting Interaktivalij, a generative on-line work of e-literature. Interaktivalij consist of eight works that expand tradition of visual poetry. Each work consist of numerous variations of itself, changing with every view.

Works/poems are generated by algorithm that creates visual structures composed out of typographic characters. Each work/poem reflect on a theme related to dangers of on-line world (privacy, viruses, deceptions, social network addictions …) by means of the title of the work, its visual structure, and typographic characters/text used.

Interaktivalij was made in 2017, as part of authors activities on 20th anniversary of its work Interaktivalija (1997), the first Slovene interactive on-line poetry collection.
